Same as most or all of their income. Affiliate links. Keeps users from using other cashback sites if they want to utilize the feature for SD cashback.
How often have you found a deal here, but then used an alternative cashback site to make the purchase? This cuts down on that competition. Many won't do the research to compare for the best CB available every time by searching/shopping other options using tools, such as cashback monitor.

The idea is simple and its a proven strategy for winning companies with loyal customers. Share some of your profits with your customers and they stay with you much much longer. We believe that by rewarding some of the commission back to you, that you'll stay a Slickdeals Community member and add value by finding deals, commenting on threads, thinking of us first when you shop online, etc.

Usually takes a 2-3 days. We dont track your purchases so we have to wait for ebay to confirm that you purchased.

not a bad idea.Fatwallet used it successful. I'd rather incentivize the deal posters than buyers. Now you need certain checks and balances in place to avoid abuse. But better deals bring more users, more clicks, more revenue

We are starting to do that as well. We just launched the new "experts" programs which will reward users for engaging with the Slickdeals community. More to come on that as the year progresses.

We dont collect your data and sell it. We built this feature as a way to show our community that we want to invest in them continuing to grow because you all are what our big difference is from other sites. If you dont want to give it a shot I totally understand, but I hope at some point you do because we need Pro users like yourself to give us feedback on it and make it better.
Quote from essix8 :
Gonna be honest, SD has gotten worse over the years, with a larger focus on profiting from the community rather than supporting it. This post obviously isnt the biggest issue, but its another bullet point on the list.

Like I dont understand how you can claim this program and extension are for "Maximizing the savings for our customers", when you blacklist the other CB sites from being spoken about. Clearly this is not an attempt to help customers but to ensure the other CB sites dont take away SD revenue from the affiliate links that are added to every link posted here.

Also while this isnt a SUB, the competition offers $10-$30 to even sign up on their sites and make a purchase, then some more for referrals.

I wouldnt have a problem using this if SD allowed people to talk about the competitor sites and SD actually offered better CB (yes a flat $3 CB is actually good on its own, but with no SUB, limited sites, limited support, extension required, no thanks)

I hope it gets better and I hope SD's realizes that the people who post good deals are what make this site, not the URL, not the brand, if the quality posters bail, the site is dead and you can monetize it all you want but you wont make a buck. So id like to see some effort into supporting those people (i admittedly am not one), like them getting a small cut in very popular deals when SD makes money from it.
Yeah... Even "Experts" like me do not get any benefits from Slickdeals.
I have 13 Front Page deals in the last 12 months, and what did I get? Nothing.
My votes don't count more than anyone else's either.
I urge you to look at what happened to FatWallet, and don't let that happen to yourselves.

Sponsored Deals => No deal quality checking => Bad deals posted as Hot Deals
Then you have censorship of commentary about the bad deals.

I also do not see the "Exclusions" in this or in the OP. Redsolar put a link that doesn't work later in the thread. So...we need a working exclusions link put in this and or the OP.
I had : "Exclusions apply, see offer for details" in the OP from the moment it was posted. I just recently added the link to the offer (which is normally accessible when you click through to ebay from the extension). I did not put "Gift Cards" specifically because I did not want to falsly trigger deal alerts.

We built this as a response to the issues we saw with Rebates. If you dont give it a chance, we wont have the feedback we need to make it better. It's easy to blame past hiccups as why you wont try new things, but I hope you give it a shot and give us feedback we can turn into real value to our community.
After months of trying to reach SD support the rebate issue ended up nowhere, SD had plenty of chances to fix that issue and decided to screw the customers.

SD has done nothing to make it right, painting this as "past hiccups" almost guarantees cashback will become "next hiccups"

1) I know you said to see offer for details, but no direction on how to see the offer details, hence my post.
2) Good try, thanks, but that is also a bad link. Must be the SD redirect breaking it. Maybe use code wrap?

Update:
Even when you click on see offer details within the extension, it is a bad link.

Update: If you click on "see details" after activated in the top line, you can see the offer details:
Even wrapping it in code it blocks the URL, so I am attaching a screencap, and here is the copy-paste version:

eBay Offer Terms
eBay $3 cashback Offer
Description
Limited time offer! $3 cashback on any purchase over $3. Purchase must exceed $3 before taxes and shipping. Gift cards do not apply. While supplies last, pay out of $3 is 30 days after order date. 1 per user

Terms of Service

I also put this in the wiki.

Ive used it several times, emailed them about nothing showing up, and they never do respond. I won't use them for cash back any further.
